The nuclear-physics landscape has been redesigned as a sequence of effective field
theories (EFTs) connected to the standard model through symmetries and lattice simulations …

Nuclear halos emerge as new degrees of freedom near the neutron and proton driplines.
They consist of a core and one or a few nucleons which spend most of their time in the …

Halo phenomena have long been an important frontier in both experimental and theoretical
nuclear physics. 37 Mg was identified as a halo nucleus in 2014 and remains the heaviest …

Collinear laser spectroscopy has been performed on He-like C 4+ ions extracted from an
electron-beam ion source (EBIS). In order to determine the transition frequency with the …

We compute the medium-mass nuclei O 16 and Ca 40 using pion-less effective field theory
(EFT) at next-to-leading order (NLO). The low-energy coefficients of the EFT Hamiltonian are …

The asymptotic normalization coefficient (ANC) is a fundamental nuclear characteristic of
bound states and resonances. The ANC plays an important role in low-energy elastic …

We report an improved low-energy extrapolation of the cross section for the process Be 7 (p,
γ) B 8, which determines the 8 B neutrino flux from the Sun. Our extrapolant is derived from …

Previous studies of the reaction ${}^{3}\mathrm {He}+{}^{4}\mathrm {He}\to {}^{7}\mathrm
{Be}+\gamma $ have mainly focused on providing the best central value and error bar for the …

We develop an effective field theory (EFT) for nuclear vibrations. The key ingredients—
quadrupole degrees of freedom, rotational invariance, and a breakdown scale around the …

The halo phenomenon in exotic nuclei has long been an important frontier in nuclear
physics research since its discovery in 1985. In parallel with the experimental progress in …
